this is the current forecast into friday morning....   it's Glenn's fault!!!!

yea i pretty much decided i wont be going with maybe a 10% chance i change my mind.....the combonation of snow but the wind pretty much sealed the deal!!!!!!

Toughen up buttercup. The main storm will be south anyway.   

[glenn57]

Yea the accompanying wind is what bothers me more, not to mention the road conditions. I. Don't need to drive in that crap no more.

Besides pokegama is a big lake with a pullover and 30 mile winds.

Forecast seems to vacillate between rain & snow. One time it looks like 1/4" - 1/2" of rain Thursday changing to snow amounting to 1" - 3" Thursday nite. The next time you look it's all rain. I'm thinking female forecasters or at very least transgendered.

Our greatest chance is for under an inch but could be 1-3.

I have a gut feeling that Glenn is the real weather terrorist.

[glenn57]

  call me what you want but been there done that. They just had 10 inches of snow plus whatever they got since super bowl weekend, add some wind. Not to mention I'll be up there alone.

I'm older Budweiser!! I don't need to drive on crappy roads for 186 miles

:rotflmao:when .......July!!!!!!!

Looking like 1" - 3" for here between tomorrow & tomorrow nite. The 30 - 40 mph wind gusts the following days are the concerning part. There was snow blowing & sticking on the road yesterday creating slushy spots.

according to the #4 weather guy Chris, he said its going to be a wet heavy snow and didnt think the blowing snow would be much of a factor......but what do those weather terrorists know......right Roony!!!!!! J/K!!!!!

[Dotch]

When it falls it'll be wet but once it cools off as is forecast, the snow dries out & blows more easily. That's why it goes thru the snowblower  better once it cools down. What fell here the other day was wet too. Was surprised how much drifting there was.

come to think of it, that snow wasnt all that hard to blow!!!!!!  hope this stuff is to before it freezes rock hard!!!!

[Dotch]

Watched the neighbor pull someone out of the ditch the other morning where it had drifted across. Someone must not have been paying attention. The worst of it was the guy didn't even offer to pay him. 

[mike89]

yes it's the wind that is going to be bad, Dotch tell your neighbor to not help anyone any more maybe??  easier said than done I know...  I mostly won't fire up the snow blower until Friday morning...

[roony]

Should have pushed him back in the ditch.

[dutchboy]

The guy probably is one of those who doesn't carry cash anymore. He maybe was to embarrassed to admit it. My thinking is if you are good enough to help the guy you are good enough to do it for free. If it was a big job, like needing to go home and get the tractor that would be something different. If he just hooked a chain and pulled him out thats not a big deal.

Last 2 times I pulled somebody out I made them hook the chain to their vehicle. No way I wanted to be responsible if one of those plastic cars fell apart.

[Bobberineyes]

That could be the case DB. I've pushed and pulled different people at intersections or stuck on high banks and never asked for anything in return,  they've offered but nope. I did feel bad tho, a texacan feller wanted a jump a little while back at a gas station when I had the arm sling on yet, I said sorry I can't help you.. that ain't me.

[glenn57]

i've pulled people out when stuck more so up at the cabin in mud. that stuff in some places is real clay like. most offered to give me something but i declined and told them maybe some day i'll need the favor returned. i have done a few around home with the same repsonse!!!

dutchy......i too never hook the strap to the other persons car.....no blaming me for something broken!!!

[Gunner55]

 It's 40 & sprinkling a little now & they're sayin 2-6" from 10 am Thursday-7 am Friday. A light glaze with 35 mph winds as well.

[glenn57]

Since you got nothin to do you could head over to Duluth and help shovel the mall roof. As I understand it there won't be a shortage of snow to work on for the next few days.
